Topic: College Football 2004-2005 (Read 9393 times)

Alright, I'm almost thirty games into NCAA Football 2005, and we're just a little more than a month away from the kickoff of the new season, so it is with great pleasure that I bring you the official JD College Football 2004-2005 thread.

While we're all friends here at JD, I'd like to take this time to remind everyone that yes, just like last year (and the year before) (and the year before that) (and even the year before that, too), Texas still sucks.

Sorry, Slave_531.

Go Sooners.

And since I'm at it, I'll go ahead and post the schedules for my state teams, so I'll have them handy throughout this fall.

For the first time ever I am really super excited for this year's season...

The Mighty Minnesota Golden Gophers have cracked the Top 10 in many PreSeason rankings. Yeah that's right, you're reading that right...the Top 10.

If they had not blown the game against Michigan last year I really think they would have ended up 12-1 and played USC in the Rose Bowl. Not sure if they would have won but they will be just as good this year, with a powerful rushing game

Might this be the return of a Major College Powerhouse to Minnesota...a tradition that has been dead for almost 45 years? I sure hope so, the U during my days there were a joke beyond belief... 4-7, 3-8, 4-7, 4-7.

Ah, it is nearly football season isn't it? I'd like to remind all of you that the best team in history of the game rests on the Central South Carolina plain... the Cocks, yes that's right the South Carolina Gamecocks.

The South Carolina Gamecocks really have but one mission in the entire season, and that is to crush the Orange Demons to the northwest...the Clemson Tigers. Maybe you've heard of this little rivalry, one that's been around for nearly a century. In South Carolina, you're either Garnet or Orange.

In short, go Carolina!

We've had our share of problems since 1999, but our trust in coach Lou Holts is still strong.

I beleive that our first game this year is against: Vanderbilt in Nashville, Tenn. on 9/04/2004

Who cares if we can never beat the ghey team known as Oklahoma..... We can still whoop everyone else this season! And I have season tickets this year, so I can cheer them on. It will be great to finally see the Aggies lose in person.

I've got two teams, one Division 1A and one Division 1AA which represent my two schools:

I have a bad feeling about this year, especially if Jeremy Bloom isn't allowed to play. I can't believe that someone's head didn't roll during all this crap of the last few months... I'm still debating about whether to get tickets this year or not. The only games I really want to watch are Texas, Kansas St. and Colorado St., even though those may all be fairly lopsided results.

Coming off a disappointing 9-2 year where we didn't win the Pioneer League for only the second time in the last 7 years. Hopefully, we can go 9-1 and win the league, but I don't think we stand much of a chance at Yale this year. (UD is a non-scholarship team; Yale is the only scholarship team we play this year). Yeah, I know that a thread about college football isn't complete until the Pioneer League is discussed.

Looks like we get to kick one of Birchall's team's asses on opening night. Excellent.

Oh yeah? Here's what happened, the last time your boys took on my boys:

You like that? You want some more? Here you go:

Oklahoma routs UCLA

On a record setting day, the University of Oklahoma Sooners rolled over the UCLA Bruins by a score of 59-24. The record in question was shattered by cornerback/punt returner Antonio Perkins as he ripped off not one, not two, but three touchdowns (74, 84, and 65 yards) off of seven punt returns for the Sooners (4-0).

As if that wasn't enough, Perkins also shattered the punt return yardage record with 277 return yards. The record was last set in 1971 by BYU's Golden Richards against North Texas with 219 punt return yards.

Coupled with Jason White's (17 of 25 for 243 yards) two touchdown passes and Renaldo Works two touchdown runs, it was a long day for the Bruins, who were last beaten by a number one ranked OU team in 1986 by a score of 38-3. Coincidentally, a 35 point margin in each game."
